For example, dragging and dropping the class Invoice from the Browser onto an activity diagram, automatically creates an object node Invoice in the Browser:

The following object node symbol is created in the activity diagram:

For more information about object nodes, see "Object Nodes (OOM)" in the Building Dynamic Diagrams chapter.
